I am convinced that it looks like a Daewoo Matiz

kieranv · 14 Jan 2008 at 14:17

Hawk Tuah · 14 Jan 2008 at 14:22

If it came here it would cost a hell of a lot more than that.

Jono · 14 Jan 2008 at 14:32

UK RRP £8500... probably

I guess the reason the Aygo & Smart aren't that cheap in comparison is that they were designed with the international market, and all the rules and regs that come with it, in consideration. Anyone can bolt a moped engine onto a fisher price body, but make is conform to EU directives....

BINGO!!

After doing it, I actually quite like the idea of a dropped one. Wouldn't scare me half so much as the normal one, I mean they are on stilts!

I suppose I should give it camber and some deepdish rims too?

If they retailed here for under £2000 I would defiantly buy one as a town car.

Dogbreath · 14 Jan 2008 at 15:59

It's quite incredible that it can be made for £1200, just with the materials costs. One slightly disappointing aspect is the fuel economy, I'd have hoped for a little more than 50mpg from a 600cc, 600kg car.

The usual i guess....

Clear indicators, a better colour other than yellow, mesh grille...a GT/GTI/Type-R badge...as well as "upgraded" rims

"pimp my nano" - Indian style, could be funny seeing all these pimped out Nano's about

Hawk Tuah · 14 Jan 2008 at 16:12

Cabrio.

SB118 · 14 Jan 2008 at 16:14

Hmm, India cost, £1200, est. UK cost £8000+

Exactly how much would it cost to bring one back from India then ?

I have already been thinking about this

We need Rover back on the go to re-badge it, ruin it a little more and then bump the price up. That's what this thing needs before it's ready for the UK market.

InvaderGIR · 14 Jan 2008 at 19:26

Can't believe I actually bothered to do this...

I would agree with this - I read that the Agyo, C1 and 107 are remarkable feats of engineering for being able to meet EU regulations with their reduced weight and price.

Are people here really going to pay £8000 for a clitoris on 4 wheels?
